Santa Monica : Seniors Complex Seeks Tenants

A Santa Monica apartment project for low-income senior citizens is looking for tenants.

The Liffman House, a project in the Ocean Park neighborhood, is open to people at least 62 years old who want to join a community-living arrangement with other elderly people, said Janet Witkin, executive director of Alternative Living for the Aging, which opened the building in January.

The 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom apartments rent for $396 a person. Senior citizens can apply together as roommates or alone.

Witkin said the goal of the nonprofit organization, which operates three other senior citizen housing projects, is to create supportive environments for the aging, stressing “independence through interdependence.”
